Jan 12 2010

Much better trading today as VIX raises and volatility returns, paired with first signs of trend. Most trades on a short side, most worked nicely. Some were capable of much more than a scalp, like DNDN short off $30.

[12:13] {Threei} if continues dropping yes,

[12:13] {dino} caas

[12:13] {Threei} but overall, I have to say the reaction is so subdued, I don't know what to make of it

[12:14] {Threei} think of it: ports were named as the most vulnerable spot,

[12:14] {dino} kss stopped

[12:14] {Threei} discvussion about cargo not being searched is long on,

[12:15] {Threei} now this threat all but materializes,

[12:15] {Threei} it's obvious that explosive is found by pure accident,

[12:15] {Threei} and market doesn'/t even blink?

[12:16] {dino} snda to .24

[12:16] {ilana} didn't reach emergency line yet probably

[12:25] {dino} arb last try sm .50 l

[12:25] {Threei} I don't know what is behind this selling

[12:25] {Threei} not sure it's this news

[12:25] {Threei} not exactly the right reaction sectors wise

[12:26] {Threei} semis sell harder than travels

[12:58] {fernp} ok

[12:58] {Threei} .30 was touched on long tail, I don't see it as support to use as a trigger

[12:59] {Threei} prefer this semi0aggresive entry

[13:02] {dino} nue

[13:08] {fernp} .15 is still the stop, no?

[13:08] {Threei} well

[13:08] {Threei} .10 can be considered new resistance

[14:11] {strider} patience: 'rought sight" ??

[14:11] {Threei} just couldn't catch enything recognizable in time on it strider

[14:11] {patience} rough

[14:12] {Threei} in retrospect, there was slight resemblence of the setup, but hindsight is, you know...

[14:12] {Threei} DNDN bottomless

[14:12] {Threei} why did we ever cover it

[14:12] {strider} I don't want to know.

[14:12] {Threei} gotta start correcting scalping habits of last weeks

[14:13] {Les} we covered cause it was holding out on us

[14:13] {Threei} things slowly become more consistnet and trending

[14:13] {Les} I'm green today. that's a first for long time

[14:13] {Threei} it's a bit farther than I'd expect it to dop, but 50 cents were clearly visible

[14:13] {strider} It's not easy being green.

[14:14] {Threei} dunno... fern is green almost all the time... of course it's easier for martians

[14:14] {Les} I'll become martian if it makes me more dough

[14:14] {strider} I thought he was deciduous.

[14:14] {Threei} he is deciduous martian

[14:15] {strider} I'll tell him you said that.

[14:15] {Threei} he knows... I just moved to the tent next to his, on Mars

[14:15] {strider} So.....martians are from Spain, coneheads are from France.

[14:20] {Threei} or spent a few min more here before breaking down

[14:20] {Les} ok

[14:20] {Les} I've been playing with AMZN, trying to learn it a little

[14:21] {strider} fwiw, I think a .15 stop for AMZN is way too tight.

[14:21] {Threei} don't know what to say on EVK, no slightest idea

[14:21] {Threei} for you, americans:

[14:21] {Threei} (US) Fed is implementing rules in regards to Credit Card Act; consumers must comply with most aspects of the rule by February 22

[14:21] {Threei} - In December 2008, the Federal Reserve adopted final regulations prohibiting unfair credit card practices and improving the disclosures consumers receive in connection with credit card accounts. This rule amends aspects of those regulations to implement provisions of the Credit Card Accountability Responsibility and Disclosure Act of 2009 (Credit Card Act), which was enacted in May 2009.

[14:22] {Threei} - Among other things, the rule will:

[14:22] {Threei} - Protect consumers from unexpected increases in credit card interest rates by generally prohibiting increases in a rate during the first year after an account is opened and increases in a rate that applies to an existing credit card balance.

[14:22] {Threei} - Prohibit creditors from issuing a credit card to a consumer who is younger than the age of 21 unless the consumer has the ability to make the required payments or obtains the signature of a parent or other cosigner with the ability to do so.

[14:22] {Threei} - Require creditors to obtain a consumer's consent before charging fees for transactions that exceed the credit limit.

[14:22] {Threei} - Limit the high fees associated with subprime credit cards.

[14:22] {Threei} - Ban creditors from using the "two-cycle" billing method to impose interest charges.

[14:22] {Threei} - Prohibit creditors from allocating payments in ways that maximize interest charges.

[14:22] {Threei} and now for the better news:
